  • Overthinking 2024 Visions - Bedtime Story for Healing Adults
    Jan 7 2024

    Have you come across all these tiktoks to make your 2024 vision board, bingo card, checklist, and 10 other things to set goals? While I admire the dedication to a clean slate and badass energy in 2024, is it possible that we are overthinking our goals a teeny weeny bit? Here's a bedtime story for adults who grew up too soon or grown ass kids who never learned how to adult. A royally demanding father-daughter relationship that teaches us how to solve problems like celebrities do. If you're more on the intellectual side of this, there is a break down of The Self Determination theory from psychology that directly impacts our motivation, which will help you bring down overthinking. Finally, stay tuned to find out how to use mantra chanting as a go-to solution for overthinking so you can come up with your own 2024 mantra (sorry to add another thing on your January to-do list)

  • Why you’re constantly zoning out
    Aug 12 2023

    Ever found yourself drifting away during a meeting? Well, you're not alone.  In this episode, I explore tales from Buddhist, Chinese, and Ancient Indian philosophy that shed light on why your dishwashing routine might just be the luxurious break your mind needs. From the serene practices of Zen monk Thich Nhat Hanh to the profound questions posed by Russian author Leo Tolstoy, let's delve into the power of living in the present. We'll also find out how cats, a common household pet, might teach us more about Zen than we think, while a little origami crane or a rogue helium balloon can serve as a stark reminder of life's little miracles. Whether you're racing against the clock for a presentation or just savoring a slice of pizza, this episode invites you to embrace every moment. Tune in to think about the simple pleasures of daily life, and meditate together, mindfully.

  • Welcome
    Jul 28 2023

    I’ve spent years seeking a space where we can explore life’s philosophies, delve into deep thoughts and discover insights from random educational excerpts. Then, it hit me – this space wasn’t just out there, it existed within all along. Sometimes, stepping out of our comfort zones is the key to growth. So here I am, laying down my first, beautifully imperfect step, embracing the philosophy, “Great is the enemy of good”. I dedicate this to all the people going through adulting or life problems and looking for comfort or advice. In each episode, I explore ancient texts and philosophies and connect them to our modern world, spoiler alert: it’s relevant even today. I hope you find something that resonates with you here. The first baby step or episode premiered on 17 July 2023, with episodes releasing every Friday, till then, take it easy, toodles!
